I will. The video has a natural break that you can find by pausing it and then sliding the dot along the bar. This occurs at 1:11 of the video clip and the game clock is clearly visible and shows 7.3 seconds left. The clock is running while the player is OOB making the throw-in following the three-point goal, which made the score 58-59 in favor of the visitors.

I now pushed play and let the video run. I clicked pause as soon as I heard the official sound the whistle for the ensuing foul. The video clip stops at 1:14. That means that the clock should be at about 4.3 seconds left. When the camera swings over and shows the game clock it says 4.1 seconds. There is no obvious timing error here. The home timer pulled one over on the refs. The clock was reset to 6.0 seconds and that clearly isn't right.
This video should be sent to the state office.
